Player News
Matt Joyce held out of lineup Wednesday
by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com
(1:43 pm ET) Rays outfielder Matt Joyce was held out of the lineup Wednesday against the Blue Jays after leaving Tuesday's game with hamstring tightness. Joyce is batting .342 (13 for 38) with two home runs, four doubles and 10 RBI in his last 12 games (nine starts).

Jose Molina returns to lineup Wednesday
by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com
(1:39 pm ET) Rays catcher Jose Molina returned to the starting lineup Wednesday against the Blue Jays after missing three starts with a hamstring injury. Molina enters play Wednesday batting .750 (6 for 8) with two RBI and three doubles in his last four games.

'Fatigued' Mitch Moreland gets time to rest
by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com
(1:35 pm ET) Rangers first baseman Mitch Moreland received just his third day off and first break since April 19 Wednesday against the Athletics. Manager Ron Washington commented Moreland appeared to be "a little fatigued" and could use a day off.

Coupled with Thursday's day off, it will give Moreland two days of rest. Washington said Moreland will be back in the lineup Friday against the Mariners.

Moreland has been one of the majors' hottest hitters since late May. He's batting .352 with a .694 slugging percentage, 1.088 OPS, eight home runs, 11 doubles and 20 RBI in his last 29 games.


Adam Eaton leaves rehab assignment due to elbow soreness
by Jack Moore | CBSSports.com
(1:24 pm ET) Diamondbacks outfielder Adam Eaton left his rehab assignment Wednesday to return to Phoenix and see a doctor for his ailing elbow, the Arizona Republic reports.

Eaton began his rehab assignment Monday and hasn't played in 2013 due to the injury. He was expected to be back by mid-June, but this setback could throw a wrench into those plans.


Nick Masset amping up throwing program
by Jack Moore | CBSSports.com
(1:13 pm ET) Reds reliever Nick Masset is throwing from 120 feet for the first time since he was shut down in April, the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Masste had shoulder surgery in September and suffered a setback prior to the season. He still hasn't thrown off a mound and the club has not made any announcements about a rehab assignment or a return date.


Chase Utley slated for rib MRI
by Jack Moore | CBSSports.com
(1:05 pm ET) Phillies second baseman Chase Utley will go for an MRI on his rib cage Thursday, CSN Philadelphia reports.

Utley is expected to miss Wednesday's game as a result of the injury, the same one that forced him out of Tuesday's lineup. He said he felt pain and a burning sensation during batting practice. His timetable will become clear following the MRI.


Chris Carpenter shooting for late June return to rotation
by Jack Moore | CBSSports.com
(1:00 pm ET) Cardinals pitcher Chris Carpenter is hoping to join the rotation by late June or early July, CBSSports.com's Scott Miller reports.

The Cardinals initially thought a nerve condition in Carpenter's shoulder would cause him to miss the season. Progress in a throwing program allowed Carpenter to speculate on returning in the bullpen. Now, with Jaime Garcia out for the year following shoulder surgery, Carpenter is going to try and join the rotation.

The club has stated nothing is a sure thing, but Carpenter's status is a far sight better now than it was in February, when all bets were on his retirement.


Twins want to give Trevor Plouffe a 'bit of a break'
by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com
(12:51 pm ET) Twins third baseman Trevor Plouffe was placed on the 7-day disabled list Wednesday, despite saying he was "feeling better" a day after getting kneed in the head as he attempted to break up a double play. Plouffe showed sensitivity to light during an exam for concussion-related symptoms.

Plouffe is expected to get a few days off before taking a concussion test. 

"He took a good shot in the head. That's what this rule is for, to protect the player," manager Ron Gardenhire said. "Give him a little bit of a break here and do what's right. He was a little woozy and that's why there was concern."


Jaime Garcia to undergo season-ending surgery
by Jack Moore | CBSSports.com
(12:49 pm ET) Cardinals starter Jaime Garcia will undergo surgery on his left shoulder, CBSSports.com's Jon Heyman reports.

Garcia first suffered the shoulder problem May 17 against Milwaukee. He is expected to miss the remainder of the season. Tyler Lyons will take his spot in the rotation for now, but expect that to be in flux with Jake Westbrook's return on the horizon.


Jed Lowrie only available in emergency situation
by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com
(12:44 pm ET) Athletics manager Bob Melvin said he wants to stay away from using Jed Lowrie (foot) Wednesday at Texas, but he's not opposed to using him in an emergency situation. Lowrie had to leave Tuesday's game with a right foot contusion after getting hit by a pitch.

Lowrie is considered day to day after X-rays came back negative Tuesday.
